Gabriel Optional Wind Braces

Optional Wind Braces

Gabriel antennas are provided with adjustable and fixed side struts noted in the Tables of Mechanical Specifications. Under normal circumstances, these provide sufficient stability for operational and survival conditions. In those instances where additional struts are requested to increase the rigidity or ice load capability of the antennas, the following optional fixed struts are available.

Unless otherwise stated, these strut assemblies consist of a 10.5 foot length of standard 1.5 inch IPS steel tubing with attachment hardware to mount to a flat surface on the tower. No threading or drilling of the strut is required.

These radomes are available in UV stabilized, thermoformed and fiberglass materials. The fiberglass models are also available in heavy duty and extra heavy duty models to meet your systems severe environmental conditions.

REPLACEMENT PLANAR RADOMES AVAILABLE IN HYPALON AND PTFE

Planar radomes are available in Hypalon and PTFE fluorocarbon polymer coated flexible fabrics. These high tech fabrics are also UV Stabilized and are designed to shed water and ice from the planar surface. These radomes are available in 4-ft (1.2) to 15-ft (4.6) diameter sizes and feature years of trouble free operation.
